It pulls in the top ten items from the feed at del.icio.us for the tag "deltagreen". The formatting stinks, and it has dead links, but it works just fine. (You might remember my old arguments for doing this on the wiki's previous incarnation. I won't rehash them.)

Please take a look at the page, and make what improvements it needs. Leave good change comments! A standard format will make things easier, and let's discuss that.

Tue, 23 Oct 2007 23:46:16 +0000 James Haughton 44502 Separating the site into "real world" and "fictional" geographical places is awkward, especially since list members spend so much time looking for items in the news etc that seem to blur the boundaries. I suggest merging the two. "Strange Places" is a more interesting title than "geography", but we can keep the "geography" tag.

]]> http://fairfieldproject.wikidot.com/forum/t-24058 Tags http://fairfieldproject.wikidot.com/forum/t-24058/tags When should new tags be created? Tue, 23 Oct 2007 02:04:22 +0000 James Haughton 44502 There is currently a proliferation of one-referent tags, usually with the same title as the article. Is this useful?
Arguably tags are redundant, since if something is relevant to something else, it should be linked within the text. It might be useful to use them in the same way as Wikipedia uses "category" pages. In which case, should they be more general in their nature?

]]> http://fairfieldproject.wikidot.com/forum/t-23753 Improvement Guidelines discussion http://fairfieldproject.wikidot.com/forum/t-23753/improvement-guidelines-discussion Clarification of the Improvement Guidelines article. Fri, 19 Oct 2007 18:28:01 +0000 Viktor E 42498 The Improvement Guidelines article says: "Improve the formatting in the Discussion page to make it more readable and add internal links to the rest of the wiki […]. Don't remove mention of the authors of the texts or edit the text itself in major ways - the goal is to make such articles more readable, not to deprive the original authors of their due credit!"

I'm OK with this, but I'm wondering about the extent of the editing. It would have some merit not to change any wording (or even spelling) on the Discussion pages, while editing the text found there (heavily) to create non-Discussion pages. The Discussion pages would then remain "uncorrupted" (yet nicely formatted and link-laden) "originals". This would be a sign of respect for the original intentions and personalities of the posters. Is that what you had in mind?

If we do this, it would be excellent to have those little Template_messages things for two functions:

1: "This is an original Ice Cave email transcript from the DGML (or Jürgen's private stash etc.). Do not change the wording" and so on.

2: "This page uses material from the Ice Cave discussion (link)here(/link), but new ideas are welcome as long as you do not alter the gist of each idea already attributed to someone else."

I can't find code for templates in the wikidot.com documentation though.

Are we still supposed to attribute individual ideas in non-Discussion pages to their originators, or is the Discussion-page link sufficient?

What about email in the form of structured, well-thought-out essays? Should we have a special policy (like locking the contents once properly formatted) for those? (For example, A Possible History of the Tcho-Tcho.)

Mon, 15 Oct 2007 21:35:46 +0000 Viktor E 42498 Is there a nice little plugin here that could at least tell us which non-existent pages we have internal links to? How will we know when the transfer of articles from the old wiki is complete?

]]> http://fairfieldproject.wikidot.com/forum/t-23119 For your information http://fairfieldproject.wikidot.com/forum/t-23119/for-your-information What the point of this forum is. Mon, 15 Oct 2007 09:06:55 +0000 jhubert 25753 This forum is intended for general discussions about the Fairfield Project. Delta Green-related discussion not relevant to the Wiki should remain on the Delta Green Mailing List. Off-topic discussion should be in the Off-topic forum.

Appropriate topics for discussion might include formatting standards or sub-projects - for example, some contributors might try to improve and expand any articles related to Majestic-12, or PISCES, or the timeline and geography sections. If the traffic and interest are high enough, such sub-projects might justify their own subforums - but for now, everything should be put in here.
